Thanks and yes, I have seen them @ Rs. 300 each. Some of them even have an external SATA port for external disks. However, they are keyed for 5V pci connectors. On my server motherboard, the pci connectors are keyed for 3.3V and both are in use (SCSI and additional NIC). A couple of PCI Express connectors not in use and hence the query. -- Arun Khan -- http://mm.glug-bom.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxers
